I wasn't gonna say anything because I knew that and I already hinted that there is like no reasonable expectation of security with wireless (IMO)

but locking down with MAC's is just another layer of security.

*cough* Lock by MAC address. Don't expect security and why. Wired better for speed and security.


Locking by MAC address is not secure. It is possible to discover and spoof MAC addresses - WPA with a very secure key is probably the only security.


yeah possible, but very, very unlikely. Few people have the skills to do something like that, and I doubt one of them are going to be sitting in range of your WAP, for hours on end attempting to do so.
